I forgot how to include code in a page, like if you were explaining a link. I am trying to explain how to code an image link but when I do it shows the image, lol.

Help? :confused:

[ ed ] or do you mean visible code? Then you change "< >" to & lt; and & gt; and "&" to & amp;

No, I know that. I was trying to tell somebody how to do that by showing them the code, but it was rendered by the post, so it just showed the picture.

That is what I want, but I can't get what you are saying. I remember another way, but if you can explain yours I will do that.

like for this:

Er, just replace something with something else that is similar and say that you did so. :)

Sure, I give you "bi-lateral periorbital ecchymosis" and you give me that? LOL

Sure thing, after you get a good dose of testicular edema due to trauma to the groin. ;) :D

(IE, " <img>http://blah.com/img.jpg</img> - Just replace "<" and ">" with "[" and "]" " what's wrong with that? :p)

Oh, and I got it resolved. I had to use BB code,
Code:
for it to work.

Thanks for the input, the board did not accept HTML, that's why I could not get it to work. Duh!
